In years past, ie about 20 years ago when my kids were smaller, we found getting out to see movies a challenge.
Cost of a sitter then paying to see what was often a crappy movie.
We started a project to watch all movies that got the Best Picture Oscar. Yes, there are many other good movies, but this was a starting point.
We found almost all of them though the Public Library in Mississauga.
Only had to order one dvd off ebay for Wings. That was the first best picture Oscar, and it came out in 1927.
Also was an interesting project to see haw film making styles evolve and change
